Autoscaling with KEDA

So far, we've learned that the HPA is triggered by the CPU and memory metrics of the Pods in a deployment.

Kubernetes-based Event-Driven Autoscaling (KEDA) is a Cloud-Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) project, with the objective of extending the capabilities of the Kubernetes HPA so that it reacts to the metrics of resources that are external to the Kubernetes cluster.

You can learn more about KEDA (https://keda.sh/) in the context of Dapr at https://docs.dapr.io/developing-applications/integrations/autoscale-keda/.

Considering the vast adoption of the publish/subscribe Dapr building block in our example, it would be smart to increase (and decrease) the number of Pods based on the messages accumulating in the underlying messaging system, which is Azure Service Bus in our case. If the number of enqueued messages grows, we could add more Pods so that Dapr dequeues the messages and our ASP.NET Core code processes the requests.
